“Wedding anniversary weekend”



“We stayed in this cosy little cottage for our wedding anniversary and totally fell in love with it. A couple of mins drive into Cartmell to buy some presents and a nice sit outside one of the local pubs with a coffee.
So peaceful and quiet and a lovely setting”

A FlipKey Verified Reviewer, St. Helens, December 2013

“A delightful hideaway”



“The Milkmaid's parlour is a charming, compact cottage. It is part of a series of restored cottages. It had a lovely atmosphere and wonderful surrounding gardens - especially the walled garden. Cartmel is a very special village - especially if you like eating out, or dining in with good quality ingredients! And of course there is the sticky toffee pudding association! The main lakes of the Lake District are also readily accessible. A lovely holiday all in all.”

“Longlands is a very peaceful and beautiful location in a perfect holiday region. You feel like you are living in a Jane Austen novel. The walled garden is wonderful. The Milkmaid's Parlour is very comfortable and well furnished.”

Mrs Wenzel-teuber, Fuerth, June 2014

“A lovely break in a beautiful part of the world. The owner was very helpful and sorted out minor problems. The secret garden is exquisite and deserves a lot more time than we gave it. We shall certainly stay again.”
